Technically this album was released December29, 1969 but no one I knew heard until the new year. 50 years later I still play this album with same vigor I did back then.

 

[Nai Noswad]

This was what my manor looked like...
circa '70.
Used to hum this and Woodstock when walking to School.

Matthews Southern Comfort - For Melanie.

 

[starstruck]

The song that made me see the light, from the best album of all time Queen II

 

[Nai Noswad]

M*A*S*H movie hit the big screen in 1970:

 

[Nai Noswad]

A must have album- for relationship fails etc..
Superb British folk from a troubled genius.

Nick Drake - Bryter Layter.

 

[Nai Noswad]

The last Hurrah!...in my mind from Decca-
Gimme Shelter was a limp pisstake and a spiteful cash-in on the back of the movie.
Keith chops and hacks here- the rumours that Dave Mason overdubbed later is pure pooh!
From the moment the chick declares them "Devils"...

Sympathy For The Devil -1970 release.

 

[Nai Noswad]

Sure recall our battered Dansette struggling to cope with this monster...what an album, barely out of the 1960's.

Deep Purple - Speed King.

 

[E-Z]

Rock music died on September 18th 1970 after which the long slow sunset into the 1970s began with rock music basically finishing around the end of 1975 except for bands like Thin Lizzy and musicians like Rory Gallagher.
